"Personal Stories" United States Holocaust Memorial Museum December 12, 2008 http://www.ushmm.org/wlc/media_oi.php?lang=en&ModuleId=10005787&MediaId=2958 This source was invaluable to me, providing the audio clips from the main body of my project. This page also told me all about each person speaking to give them credibility.
"The List" December 20, 2008 www.oskarschindler.com I only used this image in the masthead of my final project but it is still very neat to see (digitally) the actual list that was dictated by Schindler, typed by Stern and saved so many lives.
"Photo, Oskar Schindler" www.nndb.com A New York Times Company January 18, 2009 A picture that is more fitting than another that I had lined up for its position, this picture was great.
"Photos" www.ushmm.org January 18-February 8, 2009 This source contained many photos that I used throughout my website.
"Photo, Leopold Page" www.1939club.com/1939%20Schindler'slist.htm January 18, 2008 When the video of Leopold failed, his image became the next best thing. This photo helped me to make the connection between him and Poldeck Pfefferburg.
"Photo, Hans Frank" www.chesshistory.com/winter/frank.html February 8, 2009 This photo was a good picture because it showed contempt on Frank's face that must have been there when he committed his war crimes. It illustrates my point well.
"Making of the Movie" www.geocities.com/Hollywood/Studio/3469/making_sclist.html February 8, 2009 Before reading this page, the movie was interesting to watch but I didn't see it as anything that I could really put into my project. These quotes caught my attention because the showed me that the movie was moving for everyone involved from the actors to the audience.
"Mug shots of Amon Goeth" ncowie.files.wordpress.com/2008/02/goethnr2.jpg February 8, 2009 These pictures were a great visual for the last wrong answer page about Amon Goeth being a criminal.
"Photos" www.performance.art.pl/images/12/schindler.html February 8, 2009 From this site I got great pictures of Deusche Emailwaren Fabrik. Also I got a good picture of Oskar Schindler with some of his Schindlerjuden.
"Photo" flickr.com/photos/michellesoemoe/2170125329 February 8, 2009 From this site I got another good picture of Oskar Schindler with some of his Schindlerjuden.
"Emailia Floor Plan" http://www.holocaustresearchproject.org/survivor/schindler.html March 28, 2009 This is one of the rare images that show any part of the Emailia other than the front gate.
"Quote" http://www.jewishvirtuallibrary.org/jsource/biography/schindler.html March 28, 2009 This site gave me a good quote that nearly summarizes my thesis. http://www.notablebiographies.com/Ro-Sc/Schindler-Oskar.html This site also gave me a very useful quote telling me how many lives he had saved by the 1990's.
http://www.writing.upenn.edu/~afilreis/Holocaust/steinhouse.html Quotes from Ithzak Stern describing meeting Schindler and much more proved to be very helpful in my understanding of the situation from the very beginning.
http://www.shoaheducation.com/rescuers.html March 28, 2009 This site contains quotes from Ithzak Stern that helped me to better understand the relationship between Ithzak Stern and Oskar Schindler. I included this information in my websitebut it was for the most part interesting but irrelevant to my final project.
http://www.wc.pdx.edu/oskarschindler/index.html March 28, 2009 This site had a quote that fit very neatly with my thesis that I used in my final project.
http://web.ukonline.co.uk/auschwitz-poland/schindler.htm March 28, 2009 This site gave me the (supposedly) only picture of Schindler and Stern together during wartimes http://www.nbclosangeles.com/station/tv_channels/Holocaust-survivor-Leon-Leyson-a-Child-on-Schindlers-List.html This website contained some interviews with Leon Leyson.
"Auschwitz: Inside the Nazi State" Produced by KCET and distributed by Films for the Humanitarian Sciences March 28, 2009 This documentary provided me with a quote and research that backed up several of the choices that were made in my Choose Your Own Adventure segment of my website.
"Nicholas Winton: The Power of Good" Gelman Education Foundation March 28, 2009 This documentary provided me with several quotes as well as background information on what it was like to be a rescuer in those times. That last bit of information I think was very crucial when doing a research project on a Holocaust rescuer.
"Auschwitz: The Residence of Death" Adam Bujak (Photos) Teresa and Henryk Swiebocki (text) Bialy Kruk March 28, 2009 This book contained photos that scared me and opened my eyes to the horrible reality of life-and death-in these camps.
"In my hands: memories of a holocaust rescuer" Irene Gut Opdyke Anchor Books March 28, 2009 This is another rescuer tale, similar of Oskar Schindler in the way that they were both Gentiles working for the benefit of the Jews around them.

"Schindler, Oskar" Encyclopedia Britannica Online School Edition November 25, 2008. www.school.eb.com/all/comptons/article-9313425 This source gave me a very general overview of what Schindler did. There were very few details and little information that I could directly use in my project. However, this source was somewhat useful in pitting the facts that it did contain against those in other-less trustworthy-sites.
"Schindler, Emilie Pelzl" Encyclopedia Britannica Online School Edition November 25, 2008. www.school.eb.com/eb/article-9384710 This source didn't give me any information to use in my final project either but it helped me to realize that the role of Emilie Schindler was vastly downplayed in other sources.
"Oskar Schindler: An Unlikely Hero" United States Holocaust Memorial Museum November 25, 2008. www.ushmm.org/museum/exhibit/focus.schindler This was a fantastic source filled with details as well as links to audio and video clips that I implemented in my final project. Also, this site gave me great photos, and helped me to find information on other camps. This was the first page on ushmm.org that I found and it linked me to my other ushmm.org pages.
"Oskar Schindler" United States Holocaust Memorial Museum December 12, 2008. www.ushmm.org/wlc/article.php?lang=en&Moduleld=10005787 This page was linked to the wonderful maps that can be accessed by hyper link on the first right answer page. Otherwise this page more or less rehashed the last one.
"Krakow" United States Holocaust Memorial Museum December 12, 2008 www.ushmm.org/wlc/article.php?lang=en&Moduleld=10005169 This source along with the page on Plaszow was not very helpful, but I did learn one or two useful facts.
"Plaszow" United States Holocaust Memorial Museum December 12, 2008 www.ushmm.org/wlc/article.php?lang=en&Modueled=10005301 This source along with the page on Plaszow was not very helpful, but I did learn one or two useful facts.
"Rescuers" United States Holocaust Memorial Museum December 12, 2008 www.ushmm.org/wlc/article.php?lang=en&Moduleld=10005185 This source gave many accounts of daring rescue, but only a few useful facts in my final project.
"Oskar Schindler" Southern Institute for Education and Research December 13, 2008 www.southerninstitute.info/holocaust_education/slguid5.html This source was incredibly useful in learning what happened after the war. This source contains information about the many places he lived after the war and accounts for all of the things that he did.
"Emilie Schindler" Southern Institute for Education and Research December 13, 2008 www.southerninstitute.info/holocaust_education/slguid5.html This source was fascinating. This showed me how understated the works of Emilie really were. It was interesting to read but because she holds Oskar in such low regard it was difficult to find a quote that suited my purpose.
"Timeline" John Woggon December 20, 2008 www.historyinfilm.com/schnlist/timeline.html Though this timeline documents the events in the movie "Schindler's List," once collaborated with another source this was a great way to have all of my information lines up chronologically and made the process of building a Choose Your Own Adventure much easier.
"The Nazi Butcher: Amon Goeth" www.auschwitz.dk/Goeth.htm February 8, 2009 This site gave me more information on Amon Goeth so that any reader would more fully understand who he was.

"Stowaway on Schindler's List" Alex Mindlin www.nytimes.com type "Stowaway on Schindler's List" February 8, 2009 This was a great of example of the hope and inspiration that Schindler radiated that people would cheat the system to come to his camp. They did whatever they had to get there.
"Yad Vashem" http://www.yadvashem.org/ February 8, 2009 This source had great pictures and a clear description of what the Righteous Among the Nations award is.

"Oskar Schindler: The Untold Account of His Life, Wartime Activites, and the True Story Behind the List" David Crowe Publisher: Basic Books May 7, 2007 This book went through his entire life and gave me a few interesting quotes that I used in my final project.
"Oskar Schindler: Righteous Gentile" Roberts Jeremy Publisher: Saddleback Educational Publishing, Inc. August 2002 This book also went through most of his life and it also gave me some very useful images.
"Schindler's Legacy: True Stories of the List Survivors" Elinor J. Brecher Publisher: Plume November 1, 1994 This book focused on various people who encountered Oskar Schindler and what they thought, did, and felt.
"I Will Plant You a Lilac Tree: A Memoir of a Schindler's List Survivor" Laura Hillman Publisher: Simon Pulse February 19, 2008 This is a memoir of one woman's journey through many camps including Schindler's that highlights the differences between the places that she went and the emotional value of thinking that you are relatively safe.
http://www.oskarschindler.net/page_14.htm March 28, 2009 This source listed many others that provided me with great and valuable information also this source served to give me good background on Schindler's early life until his death, lightly touching on major events in his life.
http://www.deathcamps.org/occupation/schindler.html March 28.2009 Focusing on the camps themselves, this source taught me a lot about the names and treatments of various camps.

http://jfr.convio.net/site/PageServer?pagename=sup_oskar_schindler March 28, 2009 This source, like some others, provided a good background, but contained few useful stand alone facts. http://motlc.wiesenthal.com/site/pp.asp?c=gvKVLcMVIuG&b=394741 March 28, 2009 Like others, this site contained many helpful links.
http://www.nytimes.com/2008/11/02/books/review/Franklin-t.html?_r=2 March 28, 2009 This website taught me about Mietek Pemper. The man who typed the list and who was joined with the actual Ithzak Stern to created Steven Spielberg's character for Ithzak Stern.
http://www.wc.pdx.edu/oskarschindler/index.html March 28, 2009 This site had a quote that fit very neatly with my thesis that I used in my final project.
http://home8.inet.tele.dk/aaaa/Panzuck/id4.htm March 28, 2009 Previous to having seen this website I was unaware that Poldeck Pfefferburg struggled to get the story of his story out into the world.
"Voices and Views: A History of the Holocaust" Deborah Dwork the Jewish Foundation for the Righteous March 28, 2009 This book, containing information on many different rescuers (including Schindler) and many other subjects to do with the Holocaust provided me with information on many different subjects.
"Facing History and Ourselves" Margaret Stern Strom March 28, 2009 This book not only covered all of WW2 and so gave the context of the Holocaust but reached back before the 20's and gave a context for the Second Great War in the first place. This source also speaks in block quotes of Schindler and the movie.
"Saving the Jews" Mordecai Paldiel Schreiber Publishing March 28, 2009 This book spoke of Oskar Schindler but also of the numerous other Rescuers. Both aspects of this book were important as I am studying Schindler but I am also studying Rescuers.
"Into the Arms of Strangers" Mark Jonathan Harris and Deborah Oppenheimer MJF Books March 28, 2009 The story of the Kindertransport, one of the most important mass movements of children ever, is also one of the greatest stories of Rescuers. This book did not add to my project but it certainly added to my understanding.
"Auschwitz: A New History" Laurence Rees Public Affairs Books March 28, 2009 This book along with its documentary taught me a lot about the way these camps were run and gave me a greater personal respect for Oskar Schindler and others who would risk everything to try and prevent people from living in these types of conditions.
"I Survived the Nazi Hell" George Brown Kelet Press March 28, 2009 This memoir gives yet another sad detailed account from a Jewish point of view of what can happen to you if there is no one, no rescuer, to help you.
"Sobibor: The Forgotten Revolt" Thomas Toni Blatt March 28, 2009 This book was a help when I was trying to find consequences for a website participator who made a wrong choice, though I didn't end up with this being used in my project, it set me on the right path and guided me to finding the right way to finish off my project strong.
